My email password has been hacked. That's the third time I've had to rename the cat.
Maybe if we start telling people the brain is an app they will start using it.
A TV can insult your intelligence, but nothing rubs it in like a computer.
The downside of dating intelligent women is having to Google the names they call you when it ends badly.
If a man speaks in the forest and there is no woman there to hear it - is he still wrong?

(The 2 Ronnies called it Swedish, but it was very German!)
JackyB; thanks for that; I can't even recall a sketch involving either. You're not pulling our legs I hope.? wink
Made me think of John Cleese who regularly took the mickey out of Norwegians; Never understood why. confused

One clue F (have)

Jane10, POGS; Good Afternoon; batteries re-charged and raring to go! wink Reply from Bletchley Park to point out you made a critical error in attempting to assist, in that F should be pronounced "Eff, not "have". which combined with 9 (nein) conveys the pidgin German meaning better. Prove it by saying it out loud, with meaning! grin
That's what threw me.
I wasn't a Dill after all! wink

Am surprised at you rufus!

Dear oh dear!; You're too kind Jane10. I often surprise myself and need a kick up the backside to shake up my brains! confused Now I see POG's ref to the 2 Ronnies. My excuse is that it's gone midnight here and the batteries in my computer called "Brain 1" are almost flat, so we're going for an overnight re-charge. Thank you.! See ya! smile

'Have you any ham? Nein. We haven't any ham'
Am surprised at you rufus!

. Get it now

No! confused I've emailed it to Bletchley Park. If they can crack the Enigma code I'm sure they'll solve it very quickly. Oh! It's Sunday; might be a delay! grin

Just read out the sequence of letters and numbers rufus. One clue F (have) U(you) NE ( any) etc. Get it now?

Rufus2 Sun 09-Sept-18 14:13:24

I am trying my hardest but I can't get it!
POGS; Sorry. Nothing to do with the 2 Ronnies. My weird sense of humour. grin
He starts off to say his "Mom" is joking, when she carries out her threat, producing that series of characters.! Now it's my turn to "not get it."
What is your coded message?
I worshipped the 2 Ronnies along with all those marvellous comic stars; products of the 20th.century. I keep visiting their 4 forks sketch on YouTube, grin They don't make them like that these days. More's the pity! sad

Took me a few seconds to get it! Funny.

Very funny Rufus2. You always come across as a rather witty person.

My mom said that if I don't get off my computer and do my homework she'll slam my head on the keyboard, but I think she's jokinfjreoiwjrtwe4to8rkljreun8f4ny84c8y4t58lym4wthylmhawt4mylt4amlathnatyn
